Default not out of this world, no. You can probably do better, but that's not horrible.

You're better off doing the work yourself, obviously. That would save you a few hundred bucks.

If by some freak coincidence you're in San Diego, I'm doing the brakes on my S4 tonight and possibly tomorrow night. You can come take a look and see if it's a job you'd be comfortable handling.

Default for everything OEM, AutohausAZ.com is good

but upgrade your pads at the very least. Check out what <a href="www.zeckhausenracing.com">Zeckhausen</a> and <a href="www.ajusa.com">AJ-USA</a> have to offer
